What Is the Whole Body Approach of Functional Medicine?

The whole-body approach of functional medicine focuses on diagnosing and treating the whole body as a comprehensive system. We don’t just examine a single part of the system and prescribe an ostensible cure for the symptoms. Instead, we try to understand how the problem results from a function of the entire body. To understand the logic, think of driving a car with a damaged axle and alignment. The car keeps getting flat tires. A mechanic could continue to provide the car owner with new tires (treating the symptom) but the car would keep getting flat tires because the root problem remains. Or the mechanic could examine the car as a system and understand the root of the problem. That approach would fix the axle and alignment (whole system approach).

The whole-body approach examines your entire body as a system and tries to understand problems, including back pain, through how they interact with the entire system. This approach is rooted in a proactive philosophy of healthcare. We don’t believe in waiting until something goes wrong and then just treating the symptoms. We try to get ahead of potential problems by helping you adopt a healthy lifestyle that leverages your own body’s healing prowess to work for your benefit.

Types of Back Pain Treatments

The chiropractic team at Wellness 1st Integrative Medical Center offers several chiropractic techniques to reduce pressure on your nerves. After assessing the degree and source of your pain, your chiropractor may perform:

Decompression Therapy

You can get decompression therapy on your cervical spine (neck), your lumbar spine (lower back), or your knees. The goal of this treatment is to realign your joints by gently stretching them apart and sliding them back into place. It’s often effective for treating herniated or bulging discs in your back. Research into spinal decompression treatment showed a statistically significant reduction in scores based on the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) and the pain measurement index called the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS).[1]

Cold Laser Therapy

Using the Erchonia FX635, a low-energy laser, your chiropractor gently heats the tissues within your injured joints to promote faster healing. Laser therapy has been evolving in the past few decades. Lasers are now used to effectively treat a variety of conditions, including lower back pain. Surveys of scientific studies into laser therapy for lower back pain revealed that it’s an effective means for controlling and reducing back pain.[2][3]

Rehab Exercises

Your chiropractor helps your joints heal and resume maximum functionality through guided rehab exercises and stretches. They flex and extend your muscles, encouraging them to move to their full ability without causing further injury. Studies show particular benefits for patients that suffer from back pain that results from pregnancy. Rehab exercises in spinal manipulation work wonders in this case.[4]
